The problem is, see, that Americans are too concerned about where their tax dollars are going. It’s none of their damn business. Please note the irony of Barney Frank being the chairman on this committee when it was his stupid policies that caused the bank implosion to begin with. But that’s ancient history. Today, he sits, without shame, questioning a Fed official who, without shame, thinks it better that Americans don’t know exactly which institutions have received 1.2 trillion dollars since September.

But Before You Say That…

  • Comments that are inappropriate, rude, completely stupid, or obviously meant to bait others into a flame war may be deleted.  If that happens to you and you want to throw a tantrum about “free speech,” do it on your own blog.  Basically, if you wouldn't say it to someone's face without the shield of anonymity, don't say it here.
  • If you are a new commenter or are using a new e-mail address, your comment will go to moderation.  Even regular commenters get stuck in moderation sometimes.  Please be patient; your comment will be published as soon as I can get to it.
  • Comments that will never get published are those that are posted under the name “anonymous” and those using an obviously fake e-mail address.
